Jessica Donnelly's life is beginning to unravel. When the attorney turned stay-at-home mom tentatively volunteers to represent Amina Hamid, a woman seeking asylum, Jessica must learn an unfamiliar area of the law. Soon, rising opposition to Muslim immigration and unexpected prejudices put her relationships on shaky ground.

Amina fled Syria with little more than memories that now fight against the images splashed on the news. Seeking a secure future and freedom from guilt and grief, she must learn to trust others amidst the reality of fear and hate.

To find stability, Jessica and Amina will both need to harness their own strengths, which may lie in connections that transcend generations, cultures, and continents.

Review

USA Today Bestseller
"A terrific debut, and so very timely. With smart writing and compassion, Klepper offers us a look into the hearts of two women: a Syrian immigrant hoping to find a home in the USA, and the volunteer lawyer whose work brings a second chance at life not only to her client, but to herself as well." -- Julie Lawson Timmer, author of Mrs. Saint and the Defectives "Unbroken Threads delivers an honest and intimate portrayal of the American response to the Syrian Refugee Crisis. By turns harrowing and heartwarming, it's a powerful and important novel that book clubs and discussion groups will relish." -- Amanda Skenandore, author of Between Earth and Sky
"A poignant exploration of a timely political topic." -- Kirkus Reviews
"A touching story about the power of human connection." -- Leah DeCesare, Forks, Knives, and Spoons
"A wonderfully detailed and engaging story." -- Heather Frimmer, Bedside Manners
"A thought provoking novel that fits in perfectly with today's current events. Unbroken Threads addresses the refugee crisis, our own biases, and encourages thought and reflection in ourselves. Fans of Small Great Things will enjoy this debut from Klepper." -- In Literary Love
